Some day...<br /><br />For now, I write as I can squeeze in time. Between the day job and my kids softball tournaments every weekend and games/practice almost every weeknight, I have to catch time where I can. Luckily, my Alpha Smart allows me to write at the softball field and when that isn't working or I forget it, I use old fashioned pen and paper. But I can't set my writing time much into the future. Every week the game schedules change. And this month, I have physical therapy after work that's also cutting even more into my personal time. Plus my family has this funny idea I should spend special time with them for my birthday (it's next weekend but there's an all weekend tournament so hubby took me out to dinner and a movie last night and today is a family birthday celebration in a bit). :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03534849962517743534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8281953808326156682.post-8741707637380871012009-11-11T23:03:25.504-05:002009-11-11T23:03:25.504-05:00Tamika, You go girl!

I'm using a book that shares how to write a book in a month as a guide. I don't plan on writing it in a month, but the advice, charts and pacing suggestions are very helpful.ajgallionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17155248959570402952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8281953808326156682.post-3219709912990436952009-11-11T13:59:48.105-05:002009-11-11T13:59:48.105-05:00Davin, I use to snatch time from here and there.

The experience I'm having in NaNo has taught me that we use excuses everyday not to write. Shopping, blogging, dishes, laundry, family needs, yadayadayada. Yes, we need to do these things, but we also need to write, and blocking time for that is essential. Go for it!Tricia J.
